The Property
The Meadows is a beautiful conversion of a traditional community hall,
situated in magnificent open countryside, yet with easy access to Newcastle
and Durham. The property has been thoughtfully configured with an open plan
layout designed to retain a sense of the original community hall purpose.
Internally, the property is generously spacious and benefits from modern
character features. The open plan kitchen/dining/family room is flooded with
natural light throughout the day, with bi - folding doors offering fabulous
views south and west across the north east countryside, and access to the
paved sun terrace. The kitchen area features gloss units with solid oak
surfaces and tile splash back, a range cooker with gas hob and electric oven,
dishwasher and space for an American - style fridge freezer. The L - shaped
breakfast bar offers comfortable casual dining space. Oak flooring continues
from the kitchen to the sitting and dining area, providing over 800ft² of
versatile living space. In addition, there is a separate snug/study. This
versatile room offers a private escape, a spot to work from home or could
become a fourth bedroom if required. Solid oak doors throughout further
complement the character of the property.
The dual aspect principal bedroom benefits from a generous en - suite bathroom
comprising corner shower, wash hand basin, towel rail and WC, with a Velux
window providing ample natural daylight. A walk - in dressing room completes the
suite with additional storage. There are two further double bedrooms, served
by a spacious bathroom with WC. Fitted Jack & Jill basins accompany the
L - shaped bath with screen and shower over, and elegant tiling behind the
shower and basins highlight the excellent standard of finish.
An additional cloakroom/WC and large storage cupboard provide further
flexibility. The boarded loft can be accessed by a hatch and drop - down ladder
above the sitting room area, providing a space that runs the length of the
property with great possibilities for potential conversion.
Externally
The house is approached through a stone gateway with a block - paved parking
area to the front of the house and a detached double garage constructed in a
style in keeping with the house itself. The garage features power, lighting,
water and automatic roller shutter, and also has plumbing for a washing
machine. Carefully positioned fencing provides storage for the oil tank and
recycling area.
The large garden is laid to lawn and stretches around the property to the sun
terrace, offering space for outdoor entertainment and further views of the
countryside. Gravel beds add character to the garden and outside lighting
includes spotlights to the front and sun terrace, and a flood light on the
garage. In all the property extends to around 0. 5 acres.
